Emperor Xiao Ping approached with a calm expression.
Seeing that he was the same as usual, Lady Qiao felt relieved. After glaring at Su Wanti, she bowed softly, looking aggrieved, and said in a delicate voice, "Your Majesty, Concubine Zhen scolded me."
The emperor never cared about the minor disturbances among the concubines in the harem. Sometimes the empress couldn't stand it anymore and went to see the emperor and mentioned it to him, but he would just reprimand her and not punish her.
Therefore, Concubine Qiao was not afraid at all. In order to gain the emperor's pity, she even deliberately confused right and wrong, saying that it was Su Wanti who scolded her first.
"Hmm" Emperor Xiao Ping's voice was gentle, as calm as boiled water, and no emotion could be heard.
It also makes people feel that he doesn't take this matter seriously at all.
His eyes swept across the aggrieved Miss Qiao and fell lightly on Su Wanti.
At this time, Su Wanti had stood up with the help of Su Yue. She lowered her head and sat silently, with her hands tucked into her wide sleeves.
She wore an apricot floral dress with a fragrant apricot jacquard cape on the outside. The collar was trimmed with a circle of fine white mink fur, and she looked delicate and sweet.
The silent woman lowered her head, her cheeks almost hidden in the fluff on her collar, and the fluff trembled with her breathing.
Emperor Xiao Ping's eyes flickered slightly. He walked a few steps to the woman, lowered his head slightly, and spoke in a voice as calm as water, yet with an addictive gentleness, "It's been a few days since we last met. Don't you recognize me?"
Even a fool could hear the doting in his words. Lady Qiao was stunned, her eyes wide open, not daring to believe her eyes and ears.
Su Wanti was sullen and refused to look up. "Your Highness, I pay my respects to you."
The voice gradually weakened, with a faint cry in the ending tone, and tears rolled down, wetting the fluff on the collar.
Emperor Xiao Ping felt a pang of heartache, and ignoring the surprised looks of the palace servants, he immediately picked up Su Wanti and carried her sideways.
Su Wanti nestled her little face in the man's broad chest, her eyes misty and tears rolling down. She looked extremely aggrieved and heartbreaking.
She refused to look up at the man, curled up in his arms, her soft, boneless hands clenched into fists, weakly patting his chest, feeling aggrieved and sad, "I thought Your Majesty had forgotten Wan'er—"
The distance was so close that Emperor Xiao Ping could clearly see the fine hairs on the woman's cheeks. He leaned close to her small, soft, white earlobe and said in a low voice, "I know how to appreciate it. I can't forget Wan'er."
His words were so blunt that Su Wanti's face suddenly turned red.
Emperor Xiao Ping looked at her blushing cheeks and felt pity for her.
There is also a tingling sensation like an electric current.
His Adam's apple moved, and he carried the woman towards Yaoguang Palace.
Concubine Qiao finally recovered from her shock and said anxiously, "Your Majesty, it was Concubine Zhen who scolded me! Why didn't you punish her?"
You carried her with you? You should have been carrying me!
The second half of the sentence was what Miss Qiao thought in her heart, and no matter how brave she was, she would not dare to say it out loud.
Emperor Xiao Ping did not turn around, but only left a message, "Concubine Qiao has committed treason. She shall be punished with ten lashes of the board and imprisoned in Changmen Palace."
His voice was still calm, yet it carried a cold and murderous tone.
Changmen Palace is actually the cold palace. This is where Concubine Qiao was sent to. She will never be able to come out again in her life.
Concubine Qiao was stunned and collapsed to the ground. The other palace servants were also stunned. It was the first time they saw the emperor impose severe punishment on a concubine.
"What are you still standing there for? Take him away and execute him!" Eunuch De's words woke the palace maid up.
They watched Emperor Xiao Ping holding Concubine Zhen as he walked away, and they were secretly amazed in their hearts. This Concubine Zhen was a powerful person, and her status in the emperor's heart was extraordinary. They had to be more respectful to her in the future and never offend her.
Emperor Xiao Ping carried Su Wanti back to Yaoguang Palace and placed her on the bed in the bedroom.
Just now, Su Wanti fell down and supported herself on the ground with her palms, which caused her skin to be broken by the sharp edges of the brick surface. Fortunately, there was no blood and the wound was not big.
Emperor Xiao Ping sat by the bed, holding Su Wanti's hand and blowing gently, with a gentle look on his face.
"I'm sorry Wan'er has been wronged. It's not that I don't want to come see you, it's just that I've been busy with too many affairs of the former court recently. Look, I just finished my work and came to see Wan'er."
Su Wanti raised her eyes, very sensible, her pair of watery almond-shaped eyes were pure and innocent. She blinked and said, "I don't blame Your Majesty. Your Majesty is the emperor of the whole world, and you should focus on the affairs of the court."
Emperor Xiao Ping's eyes were deep. He stroked Su Wanti's tender little face and said in a deep voice, "Another reason is that I don't know how to face Wan'er. That day, I insisted on having you, and without discussing it with you, I made you a concubine and summoned you to the palace. I was afraid that you would be unwilling and that you would blame me."
In fact, there is another reason, but this reason comes from Emperor Xiao Ping's selfishness, and he is not willing to say it openly.
Su Wanti's soft little hand held Xiao Pingdi's slender big hand, and placed his hand on her heart. Her clear eyes were as tender as water, and her voice was full of affection.
"Your Majesty, do you still remember that day at Shaohua Mountain? Your Majesty's elegant and handsome appearance, as well as his unparalleled bravery, were truly impressive. I admire such a hero from the bottom of my heart. Since then, I have often thought, wishing I had met Your Majesty sooner."
At this point, she looked shy and gently nestled in Emperor Xiao Ping's arms, "Now that I am your majesty's, I am not afraid of anything. I will look directly into my heart, and so will your majesty."
Emperor Xiao Ping was moved when he heard these sweet words. He felt the softness and warmth of the jade in his arms, and a burning heat arose in his heart.
He lowered his head to find the woman's cherry lips, and after capturing the sweet softness, he placed his palm on the woman's waist, kneaded it a few times, and untied the belt around her waist.
The woman hurriedly turned her face away, gently pushed his hand away, and said coquettishly, "Your Majesty, no, it's noon now."
Emperor Xiao Ping pulled down the bed curtains, and the tide of desire surged in this secret space.
His voice was low and hot, "Are you saying I'm incompetent again?"
Su Wanti blushed and hurriedly corrected herself, "I was wrong. Your Majesty is very capable."
Emperor Xiao Ping's body became even hotter, and his eyes were filled with dark colors. "Tell me tonight, what is my strength?"
He leaned down, and his tall and broad body covered the petite and fair person.
The voice was vague, with an intoxicating allure, "For a full thirteen days, one hundred and fifty-six hours, I have endured for so long that I don't care about day or night—"
…
He seemed to be conquering cities and seizing territories, being strong and domineering.
The woman was so upset that she couldn't bear it anymore and opened the bed curtain several times, trying to escape.
But every time, the man would grab her waist with both hands and grab her back, and then change the posture and continue——
Until finally, the woman screamed in extreme joy and exhaustion, and then fell into a deep sleep.
————
At night, Su Wanti woke up from her deep sleep. The bed curtains were tightly drawn, and the small space was dark.
There was no one by the bed.
She stretched silently, feeling the pain in her body.
Lighter than last time.
The person finally left!
Just as she was about to say this, she heard the system in her mind shout: [The target person hasn't left, he's still in your bedroom! ]
"What is he doing?"
[He's in this room, reading at his desk.]
Su Wanti quickly covered her mouth, adjusted her mood, and changed her expression in a second.
